Core does not publish a catalogue of platform events yet. There is no stable set of domain events an extension can subscribe to, and this page will not invent one. What exists today is the flow-level event mechanism described below.

Flow events

A flow emits an event through the emit_event node. Emission is queued rather than synchronous — QueuedFlowTriggerEventPublisher hands it to the scheduled.triggers queue, so a flow that emits does not wait for whatever consumes the event.

Triggers

What an event causes is resolved through the trigger contracts in fapost/foundation: Trigger fan-out runs on scheduled.triggers, separate from message handling, so a broad fan-out cannot delay a conversation — see Queues.

Analytics

Analytics is a distinct stream, not the event bus. It is written through Analytics\Contracts\AnalyticsWriterInterface with AnalyticsEvent and AnalyticsEventType, and it exists to record what happened rather than to trigger behaviour.

History

Flow\History\HistoryEventType enumerates the event kinds recorded against a flow session’s history. It is a record of session progression, readable after the fact — not a subscription surface.

If you need to react to something

Today that means a node handler on the flow, or a registered schedule — see Building a Plugin. If the reaction you need cannot be expressed either way, that is a missing contract in fapost/foundation, and the right move is to propose it rather than to hook into a Core internal that carries no stability promise.
